Summary
The NHS Race & Health Observatory (RHO) has published a rapid review into ethnic health inequalities across a range of areas. This report is the first of its kind to analyse the overwhelming evidence of ethnic health inequality through the lens of racism.
The NHS has longstanding problems with ethnic inequalities in terms of access to, experiences of, and outcomes of healthcare. These issues are rooted in experiences of structural, institutional and interpersonal racism.
The review focussed on priorities set by the RHO relating to ethnic inequalities in:
- mental healthcare
- maternal and neonatal healthcare
- digital access to healthcare
- genetic testing and genomic medicine
- the NHS workforce.
